What’s on
in Mainz?
We meet beyond our regular sessions too: at community gatherings, shared events and competitions. Here’s what’s next – and what we’ve experienced together.

Mainz & surroundings
This is where we train.
Gym and parks, all with bars. Pick a spot and follow the directions to get there.
Our sport. Our club.
Your next attempt.
We’re right here.
Sometimes you’re still a little short of the bar. Sometimes a skill clicks for the first time. Both belong here. We share advice, practice together and celebrate each other’s progress.

Good to know
Any questions?
What you need to know before your first session.
We train on Mondays and Thursdays from 7:15 PM to 9:30 PM in the gymnastics hall at JGU Campus (Saarstraße 21, 55122 Mainz).
Our outdoor spots (Goetheplatz, Volkspark, Wiesbaden-Biebrich) are freely accessible to everyone — just come by!
For the indoor hall training at JGU Campus, the AHS participation requirements apply. JGU Mainz students can join directly without registration.
Everyone else can participate via the AHS programme or visit one session as a trial. Submit the trial training form to AHS at least 3 days before the session.
Since there are entrance checks, please remember to bring your registration or trial training form.
All info and forms here: https://www.ahs.uni-mainz.de/foerderverein/
Absolutely! Our training is open to everyone, regardless of individual fitness level.
Besides the participation eligibility, you only need sportswear and something to drink. Sports shoes are not allowed in the gymnastics hall — we train barefoot or in socks.
We start with a group warm-up, then split the session into Basics, Statics and Dynamics. You can freely decide where to join in — or do your own thing, that works too. The only rule: don't put yourself or others at risk.
Calisthenics Mainz e.V. was officially founded in 2017. The goal is to spread the sport and the passion behind it across the Rhine-Main region and reach as many people as possible.
